Ronald Reagan after Challenger
George W. Bush at Ground zero

Wow. Amazing words from Tom.

Also says the president "hit all the right notes. hit exactly the right tone."

Tom is in awe of this speech.

Tom's live now with Lawrence.

Go Tom! Go Obama!

8. I don't like who he's being compared to.
Still, I understand the weight those two speeches carried with the nation--coming on the heels of immense tragedies--and it's good to know that we're finally beyond this "he's too aloof" bullshit.
